    2 tablespoons flour
    2 tablespoons cornmeal
    2 eggs
    2 egg yolks
    1/2 cup whole milk

Preparation
    Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
    Generously butter a 4 cup low baking dish (gratin dish).
    Scrape your corn off the husks- To do this you run a paring knife down the middle of each row of corn, hold the ear over a large bowl and with the back of a spoon scrape the ear from top to bottom- this removes the juice and pulp but leaves the tough skins of the kernals behind.
    You should have apprx 1 1/2 cups of corn pulp.
    In a bowl whisk the flour, cornmeal& eggs until very smooth.
    Whisk in the egg yolks, milk, butter salt& hot pepper sauce.
    Stir in the basil& corn pulp.
    Pour into the baking dish bake 30-35 minutes or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
